Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 large Fresh pineapple
- 6 ounces Tequila
- 2 ounces Lime juice
- 1 ounce Agave syrup
- 2 cups Ice cubes
- 2 tablespoons Kosher salt
- 4 pieces Lime wedges
- 4 pieces Pineapple slices (for garnish)
Instructions
Peel the large fresh pineapple, core it, and cut it into small chunks. Reserve a few slices for garnish if desired.
In a blender, combine the pineapple chunks, tequila, lime juice, and agave syrup. Blend on high until smooth.
Fill a cocktail shaker halfway with ice. Pour the blended pineapple mixture into the shaker and shake vigorously for about 20 seconds.
On a small plate, spread the kosher salt evenly. Run a lime wedge around the rim of each glass, then dip the rim into the salt to create a salted rim.
Carefully add a few ice cubes to each glass, then pour the shaken pineapple tequila mixture evenly into the four glasses.
Garnish each glass with a lime wedge and a pineapple slice on the rim or skewered together, and serve immediately.
